Computer
Assisted Surgery and Therapy (CompAST) Laboratory

Department
of Biomedical Engineering-Rutgers University

Welcome to our laboratory

The mission of our laboratory is to
develop state of the art image guided
surgery and therapy systems that incorporate
innovative computer and machine interface
technologies into surgical procedures. By
providing this we are aiming to:

In order to achieve this mission we focus
on all aspects of biomedical engineering
technologies. During your time at the
CompAST laboratory you will develop specific
skills in the areas of medical image
analysis, machine learning, medical device
development and surgical systems interfaces
(robotics, tracking devices, user interface
design, clinical system investigation and
validation). As part of your research you
will be interacting and collaborating with
clinicians, surgeons, engineers and
scientist, allowing for independent as well
as collaborative research.
